Your entire country for as long as I have lived for nearly four decades have masturbated over "the right to bear arms" and you can just shoot people whenever you want and guns guns guns.

Now when you're actually presented with an authoritarian regime, you want to pull all the "yeah but except..."

Your entire country is full of cowards and pussies. You spent decades leaning into your second amendment and when push finally comes to shove and you're faced with a fascist government and police mudering your own citizens in the streets, it's" umm actually that's not how the second amendment works".

America is a country of pussies.

Yeah…I’m not an American mate, you might be using an app which doesn’t tell you where I’m from

My comment however should have been enough to tell you I’m not an American

Honestly instance doesn't fully account for everything for example I'm a Californian yet I'm using a Canadian instance both because I like the name but also I think it's funny since both California and Canada can be shortened to just CA. But yeah your comment made it pretty clear ya weren't American.
